After we had wrapped up shooting the Cityhopper Rio De Janeiro part of Cityhopper world we wanted to donate the Cityhopper ramp to a good cause, and maybe have a look at the very famous “Curva Do S” miniramp in the La Rocinha favela.

In La Rocinha we had the opportunity to do a dirty little downhill and skate the miniramp before we headed over to the “Skate-Bike-Roller” skatepark, to whom we would donate our Cityhopper ramp.

Guiding us were Rubem from the SBR skatepark, Raphael Medeiros and Maxwell Alexandre, to make sure we got the shots we wanted, and also that we wouldn’t get robbed ofcourse. Sven Boekhorst and Maxwell skated the miniramp, and I did a little downhill with Raphael. This was by far one of the coolest experiences we had during our time in Brazil. – Remy Cadier.

Music: Tropkillaz – Boa Noite. Trivia: Rocinha (little farm) is the largest favela in Brazil, and is located in Rio de Janeiro’s South Zone (Wikipedia).

Axel van Dijk who filmed a lot of shots used in the video made this small banging edit for you to enjoy. This is like a director’s cut from his point of view.

Axel has a different style and approach and shows you one trick of Sven after the other. Axel combined forces with good friend and DJ DNS where he mixes images with a custom made music set. Sit back and enjoy this mixtape of hammers from Sven dipped in the FLV sauce.

CityHopper+ is a documentary starring Dutch Rollerblader Sven Boekhorst, his brother Lars Boekhorst and Tim Haars, both known for their roles in the Dutch films New Kids Turbo and New Kids Nitro.

Sven brings his ramp to several high profile spots in Holland to test his new Rollerblade SB Pro skate, and to entertain the masses! He destroyed highly recognizable touristic locations in the Netherlands, such as the Red Light District, the Dam Square and the Leidsesquare in Amsterdam, as well as many other famous landmarks in the Netherlands.

All while trying not to get kicked out and arrested. Trying not to break his neck. Trying not to get caught by hookers and pimps chasing after him. You can imagine the shoots were ‘lively’. To use an understatement.
